25 years of passion at the service of the vines of Reuilly, a daily listening to nature, a clay-limestone soil that produces wines of character, here in a few words is what characterizes the Denis Jamain estate! "The health of man is a reflection of the health of the Earth. "This precept of Heraclitus of Ephesus perfectly translates the philosophy of the winegrower's profession as envisioned by Denis Jamain. It is therefore quite naturally that his estate, which is run using sustainable agriculture, is gradually being converted to biodynamic farming. Out of the 21 hectares (of which 7 ha are managed organically), 4 ha are planted with pinot gris, 5 ha with pinot noir, and 12 ha with sauvignon blanc. By listening to the host of the place, you will learn how he sometimes gets up in the middle of the night to prepare his plant infusions, how the lunar calendar specifies each important period to act on the roots or the leaves of the vine. When you know that 80% of the quality of the wine is the result of the quality of the grapes brought to the cellar, you will better understand this elementary attention and this rigour carried out on a daily basis that will give the great wines produced at the estate. When you come to Villa Camille, you will be welcomed in a beautiful property where you can taste a vintage with a good local goat's cheese - Selles-sur-Cher, Levroux or Valencay -, observe the fossilized shells coming from the estate's land, of which a cuvée is named, and put a foot in the vines. What a delight!
